Portishead

Great, great band. Their two LPs still sound fresh more
than a decade later. If 'Dummy' was released yesterday,
no-one would've rised an eyebrow in terms of outdated
production. I can't really think of many electronically
based artists/bands of the early to mid 90s who weren't
slaves to the production styles of their time. Portishead
were truly original.

God, their albums were so dark and fucked up. I love them.

"Dummy" is a fine album.

I remember getting into a conversation with a hobo on the
train platform of Chester station during the mid 90's about
Portishead. He also really liked them.

'leaked' release date says 31 march 08. gl0tch has nothing
to do with the leaking this time. apparently.

Bought Dummy a couple of weeks ago for £1.50, still have to
listen to it.

I'm not a huge fan...

But....

Did anyone hear that Vincent & Mr. Green album on Ipecac?

This was more up my alley.

I remember hearing Machine Gun for the first time at ATP
festival, where Portishead were headlining and it the song
really cool. But other than that there were a little boring
live, tbh.

I like Portishead in general, though.

Listening to the new track, thanks.
